What are some spells you simply don't like about your class/spec?

What about you?

here are mine for rogue

Shiv (assassination rogue) and its mechanic now, feel like borrowed power
Black powder (Sub rogue) feels really weak and clunky
Between the eyes (outlaw rogue) again, feels like a weird borrowed power

Oof. Hmmmm….

I’d have to say Arcane Orb. If not aimed correctly, it could deliberately pull additional mobs in a dungeon and call for a group wipe.

Yes, I was kicked for it before.

Marrowrend

It’s entire purpose is to hit is as little as humanly possible, possibly never next patch

Lava lash for enhancement is pretty boring.

They keep tryna incorporate it in the kit and its been redesigned like 7 times. I’d Like to see enhance have a more storm-based foundation as wow lacks a pure lightning spec.

Divine Hammer

I hate maintenance buffs.

I’ve always disliked the Celestial summons of Monk, especially Invoke Xuen. I believe ideally, Monk should be as thematically self-reliant as possible and summoning temporary pets flies in the face of that. I also used to hate Tigereye Brew for similar reasons.

I also don’t like that Chi Burst is a proc now. I used to use it for rp occasionally.

I missed the days when wild growth was insta cast (in pve) and when innervate gave mana instead of free heals even though having free heals for 8 sec is probably way more efficient. Other than that I think I’m okay with pretty much everything else

The new Primordial Wave

I dont like having to press slice and dice every 30 sec on my rogue. Feels like it should just activate whenever I use a combo point spender

For Rogues - Slice and Dice. Maintenance buffs are so boring and obnoxious.

For Shamans - Primordial Wave. Just everything about this spell feels clunky to me. Would’ve much rather gotten Chain Harvest instead.

For Hunters - Hunter’s Mark. Its so weak and pathetic. Only thing I can think of why I would even put it on my bars is in PVP to spot Rogues and Druids.

For Warrior - Ignore Pain. This probably also applies to tanks in general, but I’m not a fan of having to constantly maintain an active mitigation. I would play a tank more often if they were just passively super tanky so then all I’d need to focus on was maintaining threat and boss positions.

Bursting Shot. It looks and sounds like a gun ability.

Verdant Embrace is frustrating sometimes as an emergency heal

Any reticle spell they’ve ever created.

Reincarnation

I was playing frost mage all dragonflight and absolutely couldn’t stand icy veins. First it is summoning elemental that I don’t want, second additional talent points on the tree were upgrading the spell in a way I didn’t like, like +duration but +haste for each frostbolt cast (hate that), etc. Eventually all the bonuses from the spell couldn’t outnumber my discomfort from using it and I ended up playing without key haste cooldown

Holy Nova. I have to take it in order to path to mass dispel, but it’s so useless I don’t even have it on my bars

All the Remix twink priests are wagging their heads around
“Oh. No. She. Didnʻ !!”

Smite - Generic hitscan filler with no identity

Holy Fire - Would throw this in the lame category as well, back when Purged The Wicked was a thing for Disc it shared the same VFX with HF which is just… lol

Divine Star - Yikes

Shadow Word: Death - Having an execute is cool but not at the expense of HP

Shadow Word: Pain - Applies to SW:D too but feels pretty weird from a fantasy standpoint to have as a Holy Priest

I dislike that Starfall only hits targets I am already in combat with when I use it.

The wide range is incredible, and I don’t want to randomly pull the entire room - I just wish it was smarter.

As a hunter, I’ve never been a huge fan of trap powers.
